Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary, 2nd edition 1522 Word families: building possibilities... Words often come in families.You can expand your vocabulary by becoming familiar with these word families and this can also enable you to become a more fluent speaker and writer ofEnglish.Ifyou know all the possible words within a word family,you can express yourselfin a wider range ofways.For example,ifyou know the verb and the noun forms related to the adjective boring,you can say: • The lesson was boring. • The lesson bored me. • That lesson was such a bore. An extra reason for paying attention to word families is that for some exams you have to know them. In the list below,the words printed in boldare words which are very common and important to learn.The other words in the same row are words in the same family, often formed with prefixes and suffixes.Sometimes they are just a different part of speech (e.g.anger,which is a noun and a verb).All the words in this list have entries in the dictionary except for some beginning with un-,im-,in-or ir-,or ending with -lyor -ily,where the meaning is always regular.Sometimes words in a word family can have meanings which are quite different from others in the group,so you should always check in the dictionary ifyou are not sure ofthe meaning.
